It was a sizzling Saturday afternoon and our stomachs are
asking for anything Chinese, and the only one existing in SM Sucat is Flavours
of China. So Flavours of China it is.
(And YES, FlavoUrs is spelled with a U)
While waiting for our food, the server gave us these
complimentary crackers. It came with some bland vinegar, but who am I to
protest. It’s FREE.

First up is this Steamed Sharksfin Dumpling. It is not
actually made of sharks fin (duh), but is rather filled with generous amount of
pork and shrimp. I find that the wrapper is too yellow-ish (don’t you think?)
but texture wise, it is good. I like my wrapper thick and a little chewy. I
suggest eating it right away or else it will go from chewy to bubblegum rubbery.

Yang Chow Fried Rice.
This can be eaten by itself with some chili sauce. It is fluffy and
savory. My hubby LIKES this, a LOT!

Szechuan Chicken. I
am a bit hesitant to get this because my perception is that, it is a fried
chicken smothered in chili sauce with loads of butter. But I am wrong. I was
delighted with this dish. It has the perfect blend of crispy, spicy, juicy,
salty and oh so yummy flavors. You can’t beat the price also.

For drinks, we just got refillable (powdered) iced tea that
we had refilled for a couple of times (sinulit lang namin hehe).
OVERALL
Flavours of China is a straight to the point restaurant that
serves good food for a good price. It favors the Filipino palate by creating a
fusion between Chinese and Filipino cuisine. I won’t say that the food is
authentic; rather the food will give you a glimpse of what Chinese cuisine is
about.
NOTE: If you are
looking for AUTHENTIC Chinese-Cantonese Food, you can try Gloria Maris.
